Colorado’s own Oskar Blues Brewery and Indiana-based Sun King Brewery have partnered on a new tasty beverage: Chaka, a limited-release Belgian-style ale. It’s billed as the first craft beer to be packaged in the Allumi-Tek resealable pint can.

Chaka will be released Thursday May 3 at the Craft Brewers Conference in San Diego. The collaboration between Oskar Blues brew-chief Dave Chichura and Sun King’s Dave Colt and Clay Robinson began 15 years ago, when Chichura launched his pro career in Indiana.

The ale is 8 percent alcohol by volume. The ingredients are native to each brewers’ home state, including Shagbark Hickory syrup from Indiana, which sounds just shagadelic.
